Ocean Depths & Hidden Landmarks

What lies beneath the surface as the sea level drops: from the upper-shelf shipwreck and whale skeleton down to the sunken city and abyssal plug.

  • Sunken Shipwreck
  • Giant Whale Skeleton
  • Sunken City ruins
  • Abyssal Plug (4 new oceans)

Every landmark hiding beneath the ocean surface

Both versions of Drink the Ocean turn incremental numbers into visible world changes: every liter you gulp permanently drops the water plane around your starting island until submerged structures stand dry on the seabed.

How receding water changes travel distance

In the opening minutes, the shoreline sits five steps away from the PRESS. By the time you expose the Shipwreck and Whale Skeleton, the remaining water collects in deeper central trenches far below the island cliff. Never hike back uphill manually:

  • In the HTML5 simulator: Drink down in the trench next to the Whale Skeleton or Sunken City until your belly fills, then tap T to warp straight back to the island Press.
  • In Mana 1–4P Co-op: Assign one player to comb the newly dried shelf around the Shipwreck for high-value treasure spawns while the rest of the party stays down at the active waterline.

Pulling the plug: choosing your next ocean

Reaching the plug at the bottom of the Sunken City completes a full basin clear. Pulling the plug refills the world with one of four denser, higher-tier liquids: Cola, Lemonade, Slime, or Lava, letting you replay the landmark descent with stronger progression scaling and achievement tracking.

Common questions

In what order do secrets appear as you drain the ocean?

First the shallow island shelf dries out, then the Shipwreck emerges, followed deeper down by the Whale Skeleton, then the Sunken City, and finally the Ocean Plug at the bottom of the basin.

Is the Shipwreck in both the Mana Co-op game and the browser HTML5 game?

Yes. Both Mana’s game page and Playgama’s HTML5 simulator feature lowering the sea far enough to reach the sunken shipwreck and uncover what waits beneath the surface.

What happens after you pull the plug at the bottom of the ocean?

Pulling the plug resets the drained basin and lets you launch a stronger new ocean filled with Cola, Lemonade, Slime, or Lava.
